it looks as if we can associate any language in the world exactly the same way, 
we do not need Latin for this.

Maybe not any language (English is a mongrel language and borrows endings from several other languages, including French), but it can certainly work for languages that use a regular set of syllables and regular endings to modify the word. Many languages (particularly the older ones) are constructed that way.

Example: You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view. chdalchdy - likely must be chd alchdy (ad rosidum + the next word collutum) (preposition ad + accusative)
But even in this case, ad  is very rare in my deciphering  Huh

Okay, moving away from individual letters for a moment. Look carefully at You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view. from a more global perspective...

  1. Did you notice that 9 of the 10 word-tokens on the first line end in EVA-y? It would be very unusual for Latin or any natural language to do that. But let's explain it, for the moment, by saying it might be a list. It's possible.
  2. But... did you notice that 5 of the 11 lines end in -ris/-tis/-cis and yet those common Latin abbreviations do not occur midline? That's downright weird for Latin and the explanation that maybe midline words use a different abbreviation (or spelled-out letters) doesn't work because then either 1) there are not enough shapes to make an alphabet or 2) the words midline would be longer... and they're not.
  3. I've already mentioned that 4o (if it means pro-) occurs much too often in relation to 4 (per-). In Latin, per- is frequent and somewhat more common than pro- and yet in the VMS, if you interpret the shapes this way, per- (a very common abbreviation in Latin) happens only rarely.
  4. On the following page (f35r) 62 of the 88 word-tokens end in Eva-y or variations of -ain. How can one account for that degree of rigidity and repetition, and how would you translate that page?
